I hope you all had a wonderful Mother's Day. I know I did. It was busy, but nice. In fact, I did not even have time this weekend to make projects for this week. I had to do a little scramble scramble yesterday morning to get some projects together to post on both blogs this week.

I have seen the paper flowers that PC made and sent out to a few lucky bloggers. I thought that Sue over at PC did such a good job making them, so her flowers are the inspiration for this card that I made using the Cricut Essentials cartridge that is on the new E2.

The paper was printed out using my Imagine and the Lori's Garden cartridge. It was super easy and so much cheaper that buying paper. I printed out 12 sheets and it costs $1.50(because the white stack of paper is $5.00 for 40 sheets). Now that is not counting in the ink, but I have no idea how many sheets it will actually print out. My experience is that it prints far more sheets that PC says, so I think you definitely get your money worth!

I cut 5 scallop circles out at 3" using the Cricut Essentials cartridge. Then I scored 4 of them and folded them into quarters. I adhered them to the left over scalloped circle and added another scallop that I made using a scallop punch. Then added a button.

Love this flower card....and a great big wowie...wow....on all of your projects....you gals must have a few theme songs...and my guess would be...Whistle While you Work...or how about Zipity...Do...Da...well or because of all the rain that we've had I'm thinkin' another one would be Let a Smile be Your Umbrella on a Rainy, Rainy Day.....well geeze you guys are alway so happy and beboppin' around....what's a gal to think?

All the projects are fabulous. Have been having fun with the E2, so glad I got it. At first I had decided since I had the regular E machine and the Imagine I probably didn't need the E2, but changed my mind and am so glad I did!!!! Just love it and the new carts that were loaded in it. Marcie

Great projects, I am still trying to get the hang of my E2. On the Just A Note cart I had trouble with my layers being off in size???? Has this happened to any of your projects? I want to ask around before I call PC and probably look like a fool and I am doing something wrong!!Have a happy crafting day!!Karen dkolopez@msn.com

I would LOVE to have the Easel!I received my E2, but so far have only unpacked it. My friend and I went to the Great Lakes Mega Meet and we each bought a Creatopia with all the fixins :) Thanks for the opportunity to win a really awesome prize1

Very pretty card!! I loved all the flowers I saw that people were getting from PC. They look so nice! I still think your card "get well hugs" with the bright flowers is my favorite that I have seen done with the E2! :)sweetheartcopper at msn dot comsospoileditscute.blogspot.com

I loved seeing all of your ideas and the variety you showcase is so refreshing. I'm going to be receiving my E2 any day now and I;m even more excited after looking at your designs. Thanks for your posts:~)

Love your card & nice to see all those great E2 projects again while I'm waiting for mine to ship! BTW- do you ladies have any idea when the new carts will be up on cricut.com or where you can see the handbooks online?Thanks!

Wow beautiful projects! Always so inspiring. Can't wait to play with my Cricut tonight and do some projects. I got to buy new cartridge, haven't bought for a while now. My hubby just gave me crafting money for Mother's Day so I can starting buy . Mmmmm what to get. All! LOL
